[QUOTE="Simol, post: 1819501, member: 292486"] I have 25,000 photos and videos saved to iCloud. I have 19680 pictures and videos on my phone taking up 7Gbs of space. I would like to keep the photos in iCloud but remove them from my phone. I turned off iCloud Photos. I got a message asking me if I want to 'Remove from iPhone' The phone then tells me it is going to remove 19,680 photos and videos. I confirm the action and as far as I can see, nothing happens. How long should it take to remove that number of photos. How do I know if the photo removal is actually happening? I tried logging out of iCloud and deleting the photos but as far as I can see nothing happened. In iCloud, when I check the photos section, I note there is a an upload button. If the photos are already in iCloud, where are they uploaded to? Advice please! [/QUOTE]
